Nominate is one of the first human attitudes before the world that surrounds us, in view of the fact that language passes through human existence itself. Through language we also organize our way of being in the world and acting on it, which makes us think of language as a component of culture if it is comprehensively understood as “a whole way of life” (WILLIAMS, 2015, p. 10). Through language we can also understand the cultural and historical practices of our predecessors, since linguistic practices that were customary in times before us also permeate the social relations of the present, many modified in their forms and meanings, but which help us to understand the forms of community organizations of the past, as is the case of the object of study of this research the toponyms. The field of toponymic studies in Brazil has stood out from the research of Levy Cardoso (1961), when he studied aspects of the forms of nomination of places, and has followed its development through the studies of researchers such as Drumond (1965) and Dick (1980) until the present moment, when scholars from the country have undertaken efforts in the construction of the Atlas Toponymic of Brazil (ATB) project. In this sense, the present work aims to analyze the indigenous toponimies of the Ceará micro-region of the Sertão de Quixeramobim, which are classified, according to Dick’s (1990) theoretical-methodological marks, as being of an anthropocultural nature, that is, names of places that have their denominative motivation related to cultural factors of the indigenous peoples. Thus, the corpus of this work is composed of 03 toponyms of the aforementioned region. It is important to emphasize that we stick to the semantic motivation of these toponyms, making considerations about the relationship between the toponymic lexicon and cultural identity. For this, we also used Biderman (1998), Hall (2006) and Woodward (2014) as theoretical contributions.
